Leeds - A year of learning, growing, and creating a lifelong memories.

Tips: Students need not worry about anything, as the transition is made very smoothly through the Welcome Week. These activities help you settle in every way - whether it's attending classes, joining societies, gaining visa-related information, or mingling with fellow course mates. The University location is highly convenient, with everything close by, as Leeds is a very student-friendly city. The M.Sc. in International Business course is highly practical, with a strong focus on case studies that connect you to real-world business scenarios.

Likes (Value for money): Value for money is truly worthwhile, as the practical exposure gained through industry visits, assignments, and part-time jobs is phenomenal. I also had the opportunity to participate in a global study tour, which was highly insightful. I even had an opportunity to work as a Link to Leeds Ambassador, which gave me an opportunity to connect and work with people from all over the world.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Many companies offer visa-sponsored jobs; however, securing such an offer requires strong skills, professionalism, and relevant experience in the role. Salary ranges vary by position and are aligned with industry standards, ensuring fair and competitive compensation.

BA Business Management - Batch of 2026

Offered by University of Leeds

3.4

The academic experience and university life do not adequately compensate for the investment.

Tips: Be mindful of friendships that could hinder your progress. Prioritise your goals and be direct. Don't delay applying for internships; prepare your CV promptly. The culture here often revolves around socialising, and unfortunately, racism can be an issue in the UK.

Likes (Safety): The city is generally safe, especially since it's a student-focused area, and the police are often present around campus. The university app also offers several emergency services for students who feel unsafe. Overall, it's one of the better cities in the UK, though Manchester has a better university.

Dislikes (Value for money): I don't think the Business Management course is worth paying a 1 crore INR tuition fee. The academic experience and university life do not adequately compensate for the investment. The course content feels basic and could be pursued in India. However, I appreciate the opportunities for extracurricular development.

The college is friendly and welcoming.

Tips: There is definitely a cultural change to be experienced here, so please be open and friendly to all cultures and try to make friends with everyone. I am satisfied with the university and the course, but probably not the country.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is very nice and supportive to international students. However, my finance teacher in my first year didn't know much about teaching, and despite submitting many complaints, there was no change in their teaching methods.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don't want to live in this country for a long time. I have faced racism even though not in the university, and it is also difficult to get a job here with visa sponsorship with the recent change in the governance.

The university is very student friendly and vibrant.

Tips: There are a number of scholarships available; do thorough research to find one that best fits your needs. The university and the city of Leeds are very friendly and helpful, so it becomes easier to get by. Academically, it challenges the traditional methods of studying as it involves a lot of research and deep learning.

Likes (Indian Food): There are a number of Indian restaurants and markets in the city of Leeds. You will also find Indian food at grocery chains such as Tesco, Aldi, Sainsbury's, etc. Along with that, there are a number of north and south indian food outlets and restaurants available at a relatively cheaper price to cater to students specifically.

Dislikes (Internships): The University doesn't offer many internships, but there are plenty of full-time and part-time positions available. The Joblink and the career centre at the university are excellent resources for finding work. I personally wasn't able to find any internships through the University, so I'm a big fan of LinkedIn for finding that sort of opportunity.

Strong academics and sometimes it can be quite challenging for International students.

Tips: Need to work very hard for assignments and academics, as Chat GPT is easily caught under AI and Plagiarism. I’m from a general category in India, and a well-to-do family, so I was not able to apply for a scholarship, and my course did not provide scholarships on the basis of academic performance. I am, however, very content, as I have learned to be more self-sufficient and self-reliant. I have gained a sense of confidence as a professional.
